running long octave simulations

[Kamaraju S Kusumanchi]

I have a small script which takes couple of hours to run in octave. I run
the code by invoking

nohup octave -q script1.m &

Say the code takes about 10 hours to complete. Now if script1.m is modified
during 5th hour and saved to the same file. Will octave be running original
script1.m or the modified script1.m after the 5th hour? Is it assured that
octave runs the original script1.m even though it was modified somewhere
during the run time?

Any ideas?

thanks
